Fack no!

I’ve got a pair of the kuiu I think Yukon pants. I like them. Lots of stretch. The Sitka ones are terrible. Cut for fat guys with fat legs who only walk to and from their treestand in Pennsylvania. For most rain I honestly prefer a pair of fast drying hiking pants and gaiters to keep it off my legs from the wet grass and brush.

Those John Deere front rims add $2k

I just so happen to have a 5.5-22 nighforce that could go down there road.

Any idea if this is old enough to ship without an FFL? I’d take it from you but I’m in ND. Not sure when the curio and relic age starts

I won’t shoot one in TX, but if price is what you’re concerned with, the $2k to get there and the $2k to get the cape and horns back will wash any price difference down the drain. Anyhow, was just giving my opinion on NZ stag hunting. Most of the people that go over there think it’s the greatest thing in the world, but CWT isn’t full of “most people”. The hunters here are dang good hunters that think will also be horribly bored with a high fence hunt. Maybe I’m wrong. I was at the dinner table on my NZ trip and the other hunters were going on and on about “how they can’t believe how much game is there” and I couldn’t help but laugh and think, of course there’s a lot of game, they just dumped it all out of a trailer. They can put as much out there as they want. The pastures were big, I hiked 16 miles the day I shot my stag, but there was a fence, and at the end of the day; that stag couldn’t get out of there.

Go to NZ and spend a month seeing the sights. The hunting is the biggest let down of the trip. I shot some ducks and geese and that was awesome, but beyond that the high fenced stuff is exactly what it sounds like, high fenced. Save the long trip and airline cost and go blast one in TX, same difference. Just my 2 cents from someone who wishes he would have spent his NZ money on just about any other trip out there.

Should be good news for you! You can apply for it and have less competition.

Bought these this summer, and I’ll be honest, they aren’t my cup of tea. They have been hunted with this past fall. They have outdoorsman stud on them. Small crack in the rubber housing on the objective on one side. Doesn’t affect glass or body. Warranty card is unfilled. Willing to ship and insure on your dime. PayPal gift or Venmo or will do regular PayPal if you cover fee. Located in ND so likely have to ship. $3100 firm

Some poor scammer is gonna have to look at all those nudes @Firstcoueswas80 has been sending to everyone.

Man that chuckster is one homely SOB. Yet I still want it for some reason!

I want one of these so bad. I’m glad you don’t live closer to me Levers!

Build the wall?!?

How long are the barrels? Any idea on the choke? What kind of ammo? Where are you located?

I was obsessed with these things when I was a kid. Never understood why they were 7.82?

It will be your last 23 archery almost certainly, so think of it that way instead of your first archery elk tag. If you get hooked and want to go shoot rag horns you can do that every year for the rest of your life in other places. I’d hold out for a big one.

It’s gonna be awesome either way. This moisture pattern won’t bust a drought but it can green things up enough to pack some antler on. Even if it dries back out you’re still in for the hunt of a lifetime.

I have had three vx 6’s. I none of them tracked well enough to use the turret on them. If you’re just gonna sight it in 2” high at 100 yards and call it good I’m sure they’re fine. Much much better options out there in that price range if you’re thinking of dialing turrets though.

Used for one hunt. Generation 2. Does have some handling marks but optically excellent. Includes 40mm warne rings and the Swarovski machine magnetic scope caps. New price would be well over $6k with tax ($5300 for scope, $279 for rings and $300 for the caps). Asking $4500 shipped. Really slick set up for fast hunting situations.

MOA CF2 reticle. 2 FP. It's been mounted once but no ring marks. Only has a front flip up scope cap, not sure if they come with front and rear or not. Small scufff on elevation turret pictured. Glass is great. $1500. PayPal gift, will ship and insure if covered.

I think that would have to have been anecdotal error? I’ve heard guys claim they get 10-30fps higher, but have never seen that myself. It’s always right on with my muzzle break. I don’t see how it could slow it down any.

If you don’t mind me asking, what advantage in POI consistency does does quick connect give you? I have thread ons, mostly because they only come off when I go to Canada or MX and it’s not that long of a job to spin them off, but if there’s a POI benefit I’d be all ears

I watched some guys trying to stalk antelope behind one of those in 19a years ago. It was comical. I didn’t actually think anyone actually bought those things. In all seriousness, it looked literally like a mirror shining in the sun from the front. The antelope actually approached them to about 200 yards trying to figure out what the heck it is and then hauled out of there
